Supplementary information

Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2 also known as PTGER2 or EP2 receptor is a G-protein coupled receptor with a molecular mass of approximately 53 kDa. This receptor primarily binds prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) mediating various cellular responses. EP2 receptor is expressed in tissues such as the brain kidneys lungs and immune cells. Its activation leads to the stimulation of adenylyl cyclase increasing levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) within the cell.
Biological function summary

The EP2 receptor plays a role in vasodilation immune modulation and regulation of pain and inflammation. It does not act as part of a large protein complex but rather exerts its effects individually through its coupling with G-proteins. EP2 receptor stimulation results in smooth muscle relaxation and has implications in neuroinflammation and renal function.

Pathways

The EP2 receptor is involved in the prostaglandin signaling pathway and contributes to the inflammatory response pathway. It shares a connection with other receptors such as EP1 EP3 and EP4 which also bind PGE2 but induce different cellular responses. These pathways integrate signals that modulate processes like inflammation and immune responses highlighting EP2's role in maintaining physiological balance.

EP2 receptor activity is associated with conditions like asthma and Alzheimer's disease. In asthma the receptor's activity may influence airway hyperresponsiveness through its effects on smooth muscle and immune cells. In Alzheimer's EP2 receptor-related pathways may contribute to neuroinflammation which is linked with disease progression. Connections with proteins like COX-2 can be noted in these disorders as COX-2-dependent prostaglandin synthesis directly affects EP2 receptor signaling and subsequent cellular outcomes.

Target data

Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G(s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase. The subsequent raise in intracellular cAMP is responsible for the relaxing effect of this receptor on smooth muscle.
